Maybe. Is the co-op local on PC as well? I'd love playing it with a friend
>>
Call me when the fucking online multiplayer is actually in the damn game
>>
>>338025046

The art-style is so fucking ugly.

its not that good.
it rips off dark souls in concept, but decided to keep the tracking from 2.
put that in 2d and we got enemies flipping before you can react.

>>338025531

Dude, it's made by western devs. What did you expect. They have no idea about good game design.

Why does it not detect controllers? Anyone know the fix?
>>
>>338025046

No.... I mean SUCK IT PC! SCRAPS AGAIN!

I heard it has bad controls and annoying platforming

Also some annoying backtracking no map issues or so
>>
>>338025371
the like the art I just hate the horrid character faces. it looks like some 14 year old on deviant art trying to draw anime for the first time. it's amazing they decided to go with that half assed face as the only option.

Nope. PC has enough indieshit as it is.

Yeah, I'm enjoying it more than Dark Souls 3 so far even. Nice to have some actual exploration for a change, although the game has a problem with making too many shortcuts unnecessary with its sanctuary placement. The art style's a mess too. Enemies blending in with the backgrounds is one thing, but what really annoys me is the game's heavy use of post-processing shit like bloom and black borders everywhere. The game really doesn't look too bad when it goes light on those.

There's no equivalent to the MPAA for video games. But if you're that concerned, use Peerblock, a VPN, or just go on a public wifi

Pretty fun and a well-made game in general. I really enjoyed it on PS4. Art and music suck for the most part. Waiting on the Vita port.
>>
>>338025046
No, cause the only reason people pretended to care about it in the first place was cause it was a PS4 exclusive for a short time.
>>
>Salt and Sanctuary came out for PC. Does anybody care?
Not really no.

The artstyle and animations are dogshit newgrounds tier and people posted about it only because it was a time killer before DS 3 released
>>
>>338029004
Downloading is legal, uploading/distribution is illegal.
You upload the file by seeding.
>>
>>338029404
it depends solely on what you're downloading, if its protected by the rightful owner.
which im sure salt and sanctuary is, but they can go on kat right now and demand the torrent to be taken off the site, that has happened before.
>>
>>338025046
I won't talk about it for several days on /v/ since I'm playing it right now and I want to avoid the spoilers. But so far it is pretty great. They copied nearly everything that was in Dark Souls 1, but it is really fun and the overworld is interconnected just like dark souls 1.

Them not releasing the PC version before DS3 really killed this game.

Somebody give me one reason I should buy this flash game instead of going back to real Dark Souls
>>

Nope.

Artstyle is ugly as sin and I'd rather play a real souls game or symphony of the night.
>>
>>338030721
Fantastic 2D bosses.
>>
>>338030721
There's none if not for more dark souls and more content. The exploration is pretty great in Salt and Sanctuary, and it is worth to play at least once.

>>338029537
You don't understand exactly how it works anon. The P2P principle is that everyone is an owner/receiver. If you take down the link to torrent address on a website, there will still be people owning the object and linked to this address. It is like people meeting on a street, removing the flyer telling where people must go to meet themselves won't stop people from seeing each other. A torrent is just a piece of information. To remove the content of a torrent you have to take down every users seeding.

I liked what little I played of it, but I'm balls deep in Darkest Dungeon so it'll have to wait.
Have the devs ever said anything about a Linux port?
>>
>>338030721
It doesn't have DS1 and DS2 pandering.

Streaming is legal. Everything else illegal.

I just watched the trailer an the gameplay reminded me more of shank than the souls series.

So true.

>>338030721
Faster combat where every most builds are viable and R1 spam isn't the best tactic. Heavy weapons are satisfying to use and don't feel like you're gimping yourself. Game actually has a world that you explore instead of a straight path with the occasional branch leading to a dead end. Bosses are pretty good. The fact that it's 2D and has a huge focus on platforming already distinguishes it from Souls games a lot since it changes everything from the combat to the level design.
>>
>>338027838

This pretty much mirrors my own experience so far.

For something as creatively bankrupt as it is, it's as surprisingly solid and extremely enjoyable game.

Combat feels great, i've been pumping all my stats into strength/endurance/great swords and although i'm only an hour or so in, I already have a great Berserk, cleave huge swathes of undead into mince with a single swing of my great sword thing going on (really makes me wish Dark Souls had significant amounts of gore). The difficulty feels right, bosses are a lot of fun and exploration is enjoyable.

Like anon mentioned though the art is fucking atrocious, a few tweaks to lighting/bloom would do wonders, some slight tweaks to the colour of some enemies to help them pop a little from the environment and a simple sprite pack to replace the character faces would do fucking wonders for what is an already great game.

8/10, would pirate again and wait for Steam sale.

Transmute whip into SWORD WHIP or a slightly better whip?

Did they fix magic? Was complete broken.

It's fun but it feels a lot easier to progress than any of the souls games. Bosses don't feel as cool to fight even though their designs are way better than any single Souls or Bloodborne boss designs.

If the game was 3D and had some proper pacing and a little shoepolish it would be great.
As it is I'd say it's just fun and something to check out when you're bored.
>>
>>338032327
Some spells were tweaked/nerfed.

What's the funnest way to play the game
I tried a few weapons, whip is too slow and heavy weapons are boring so i'm using daggers
How is magic?
>>
>>338032812
Polearms. Magic sucks like ranged.

>whip is too slow
But an essential skill path to get a sword whip, which is fast. Combine it with the charm that increases attack speed and you can tear through shit in no time.
>How is magic?
It was viable on PS4, but I keep hearing people say it's been tweaked on PC so I don't know how it holds up now.

>>338033135
I didn't know about the sword whip, i only tried the beginner whip of Hunter class

Are you out of your fucking mind?

Excellent game. Can be very easy with some builds.
>>
>>338033237
No, I'm just not high off of huffing the shit out of my own ass like Soulsdrones are. Demon's Souls had the best boss designs in the series and even those were just okay.

it's 2d dark souls
>>
Vita version when?
>>
>2D

that makes it even more linear than Dark Souls 3, you have one whole less dimension to explore.
>>
>>338033416
Being 2D makes it very different, though. The combat does not feel anything like Souls combat because of the fast pace, combos, juggles and all the movement. The level design is obviously nothing at all like Dark Souls considering it didn't even have a proper jump.

>I hate souls fans because they like a good game

Seems like you've got a classic case of moronic opinions. And demon souls generally has the worst boss designs, although they're still generally good.

Post a single boss from s&s that's better visually designed than the soulsborne bosses. There isn't a single one, even when disregarding of artstyle. They are both not remarkable, and borrow heavily from the souls franchise.

Don't be stupid.
>>
>>338033416
Like I said before, it looks like shank
>>
Haven't played DS3 yet, but i'm genuinely enjoying Salt and Sanctuary more than DS2.

I love the world building, lore and design of the Souls series, but the combat has never felt like it has any real weight behind it when you hit an enemy, older games like Rune, Severance etc whilst far from perfect, really nailed the visceral feeling of cleaving flesh with steel. Something that S&S has in spades.

I was interested in it before DS3 came out, but now I don't really care.
